NYSED Network Team Turnkey Series for Recertification of Lead Evaluators<br />
– Annual Training Required of all Administrators for APPR Implementation<br />
How can we build the capacity of teachers and administrators<br />
using the required APPR components?<br />
This required training program for lead evaluators is designed to reflect on the experience of year 1<br />
implementation of APPR requirements. Participants will work to refine observation skills and conversations<br />
with colleagues on improved student learning. The implementation of the Common Core standards will be<br />
emphasized, as will using assessment to improve instruction. The APPR tools of Student Learning Objectives<br />
and local assessments will be a basis of discussion. Framed in terms of the required components of<br />
the lead evaluator training, this series enables districts to certify participants as lead evaluators prior to<br />
completing final teacher evaluations in the spring of 2014. Districts are encouraged to attend as teams.<br />
NYS Metrics and Expectations will be addressed and will provide a framework for discussion.<br />
